What are some variations of the keto diet?

There are several variations of the keto diet, including the standard keto diet, targeted keto, and cyclical keto. Would you like to know more about each?

Yes, please explain the standard and targeted keto diets.

The standard keto diet is high in fats, moderate in proteins, and very low in carbohydrates. Targeted keto allows for some carbs around workouts to provide energy. Both aim to achieve ketosis.

What about cyclical keto? How does that work?

Cyclical keto involves alternating between periods of strict keto and higher carb intake. For example, you might follow keto for five days and then have two days of higher carbs to replenish glycogen.

Are there any specific foods I should focus on for these variations?

Yes! For all variations, focus on healthy fats like avocados, nuts, and olive oil, along with low-carb vegetables and quality proteins like fish and poultry.
